Try making your onlette with Deb El Just Whites (dehydrated egg white). I use 2 whites & a whole egg. It is better than Egg Beaters (what a misnomer) and doesn't have all that sodium or yellow dye. The egg white powder takes about 15 minutes to properly rehydrate but can be prepared the night before or the omlette cook ahead & reheated.0

I made this bad boy this morning before work! I drank it between 7am-9am (slow drinker, plus i was watching Mad Men.), and I don't get my lunch until 2:30pm and didn't get hungry!

I improvised by added a few berries and used fat free milk instead of almond and added a scoop of vanilla protein powder, but it was my first ever green monster and was simply delicious. I was so not prepared for it being as good as it was!0 -
Hello. The oatmeal packages are processed, so I think that's why some people say it's bad, but those are mostly "clean" eaters who don't like to eat anything out of a box or can. But I believe that in moderation, eating processed foods is just fine. A calorie is a calorie.0

i usually crunch granola in yogurt with a piece of fruit and a bottle of water! It usually fills me when i am on the go. But when i have time I make Oatmeal on the stove and add a tad bit of brown sugar and cinnamon and raisins. Its great, fast, and sticks with me ALL day! So, i hardly ever have to snack!0

If you have a microwave and you like oatmeal do what I do.
Take 1/2 cup of rolled oats (not instant), 1 cup of either milk, water or non-dairy milk ( I usually use almond milk)
Mix in whatever you like in your oats ( honey, raisins, cinnamon, etc...)
Mix it all together in a tupperware container the night before. Let it sit in the fridge overnight.
The next morning all you have to do is give it a minute or two in the microwave and you have oatmeal that is not processed and didn't take 1/2 an hour to cook.0 -
1/2 cup egg beaters scrambled then wrapped in flatout flatbread lite: 22 grams protein, 3 grams fat, 17 carbs with 9 of those being fiber.0

My favourite breakfast is one egg on an english muffin with a scoop of salsa on top. The salsa has way less calories than the cheese I'd usually put on a breakfast sandwich, and it tastes delicious!0

On a Sunday evening, I'll cook up a cup of shredded frozen hashbrowns in olive oil spray, throw in some onions, bell peppers, musthrooms, and sometimes even spinach, add. Once they're all cooked up, I'll add a 1 1/4 cups of Egg Beaters (salt/pepper to taste), and evenly divide up into 5 dishes... DE-LISH!!! Especially on Mission Extra Thin corn Tortillas.0

McDonald's has two very tasty and healthy oatmeals. I get one almost every morning and have an EAS Advantage protein shake with it. best of luck.0

This morning I toasted a slice of bread, spread it with smooth peanut butter and topped with sliced banana.
Quick, filling and healthy!0 -
Special K with sliced organic banana and chocolate protein powder mixed in.0

Apple & Oats Muffins ~ 2 Whole Eggs 1 Carton of egg whites 1 small chopped apple Oats Cinnamon Blend egg whites and eggs. Add 1 Tb of large flake oats to olive oil sprayed muffin tins. Add Eggs. Add approx 1 tb of chopped apple to each muffin, then sprinkle with cinnamon. Bake at 350 degrees for approx 30 mins. I bake these a little longer so the apple is fully cooked. Top each muffin with 1/2 tsp of peanut butter0 -
I often have an omelet with 2 egg whites, 1 whole egg, mushrooms and a little bit of cheese.
I have a plastic thing that means you can make it in the microwave which speeds it up in the morning.0 -
-hard boiled eggs
-egg scramble (1whole egg, 1 egg white, veggies, salsa)
If you cut up the veggies ahead of time, it only takes about 5 minutes to make it.
-greek yogurt (you can jazz it up by adding fruit, honey, cinnamon, etc)
-protein shake
-bananas
-peanut butter w/ toast
add a glass of milk or natural fruit juice to any of these.
I also always look for organic/natural stuff.0 -
I make a whole bunch of old fashioned (or steel cut) oats on Sunday and portion it for my breakfast during the week. The great thing about making old fashioned oats is you can put whatever you want...
Canned Pumpkin
Banana
Choc Chips
Strawberries
BlueBerries
Or you can make baked oatmeal (this heats up nicely in the microwave).
I also have made egg casseroles and portioned up for breakfast.0 -
Slice of whole grain toast (cut in half), heat and serve turkey breakfast sausage, half a slice of cheese. Takes about two minutes to put it together.0

I just tried plain yogurt this morning mixed with a small bit of cereal, and it was surprisingly delicious. I normally do the instant Quaker Oats, though.0
-
I love plain greek yogurt blended with some frozen fruit, pretty darn quick.0

I love oatmeal. I make a big batch of old fashion quacker oats with optional ingredients: dried cranberries, walnuts, wheat germ, milled flax seeds, etc. on my day off and divide it in small containers 3/4 c servings. I pop it the microwave with a splash of milk and in 1:30 a hot, filling breakfast is done. My recipe makes 7 servings for each day of the week. I wouldn't start my morning without it. You can find the complete recipe on my blog..... http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/FollowMeFit
P.S. Instant is not "bad" for you but it is processed which makes it easier to digest, quicker to turn to instant energy that your body will use before it uses the stored stuff (fat), and doesn't keep you as full as the unprocessed kind.0 -
Whole grain english muffin with nut butter and flax
Oatmeal (steel cut oats are best but anything is better than nothing - even the instant packets) with fresh fruit added in
A banana with a handful of raw nuts
An apple with 1/2 whole grain bagel and 1 to 1 1/2 tblsp fat free cream cheese (tip: try adding veggies like leafy greens, shredded carrot, and onion to your bagel to help get in those veggie servings)
Skim milk and whole grain cereal + 1/2 cup fresh berries0 -
I like to take a greek yogurt, dump in it a tupperware container with a 1/2 cup dry oats and let sit overnight or for a few hours.0
-
Protein Shake... I use herbalife and LOVE it!0
-
I enjoy an apple with peanut butter and an atkins shake. Love Atkins for the very low sugar content.0
-
beat an egg and microwave in a small bowl (like a custard dish) for 45 sec on high. Add some cheese and maybe some diced ham. I'll also have a plum on the side.0

I throw this in the microwave: 1/2 c. chopped broccoli, 1 c. chopped spinach, 1/4 c. diced red (or yellow, orange, green) bell pepper, and eggs--either whole or egg whites (I get the packaged egg whites). I mix the eggs with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and then mix the veggies in. Microwave till done (for some reason, the times vary from 2-4 minutes, depending on the day). Sometimes I put a TBSP of cheese on and then flip it together. I can cook it while I'm getting ready to go, grab from the micro, eat really fast, and go. Good protein, veggies... and not horrible on the sodium.
Something else that's good is Greek yogurt with a scoop of protein powder mixed in.
Lately, I've been adding 1 TBSP of PB2 (powdered peanut butter) and a TBSP of sugar free preserves and mixing it with my Greek yogurt. It's like a PBJ in a bowl. YUMMY!0 -

I eat 2/3 cups of granola, a dannon light and fit yogurt or yoplait light yogurt with blueberries (if I can find them) or a banana if I can't find the berries due to the season. It keeps me full all morning and I pack it all separately and mix it together at work and eat it at my desk. I eat that in the morning around 830 and I'm good until lunch at 1230 and it is only around 400 calories and tastes yummy. My favorite granola is Cascadian dark chocolate almond0

My favorite breakfast is: (and I cook this breakfast sausage ahead and keep in freezer)
1/3 cup egg whites
2 oz. Isernio's Chicken Breakfast Sausage
1 Eating Right (or Orowheat) Multi-Grain Sandwich Round
Put the sandwich round in the toaster. Spray a small fry pan with pan spray. Put in the crumbled sausage and heat over medium until it starts frying. Spread them evenly in pan, then gently pour in the egg whites and cook over medium heat until done. Break apart so the eggs/sausage fits on the sandwich round toast and viola! Only 205 calories.
This sandwich is huge and has plenty of protein to last me until lunch time. Sometimes I even have it for lunch with glass of fresh carrot juice.. yummy!
Edit: Oh, this takes about 5 minutes.
One more:
1 Ore-Ida hash brown patty square (come 9 in a box)
1-2 eggs
Spray pan with pan spray. Fry the hash brown patty. Put on the plate. Re-spray pan and add egg(s). Cook to preference. With one egg 140 cal. With 2 eggs. 210 cal.0 -
I l like peanut butter and banana on a wholewheat wrap....quick and easy!0
